Also, flushing the lines will not necessarily get all the crude out, so I would not rule this out yet. Seeming fine and being fine are two completely different things. There could be junk in the "T" orifices that go to the front brakes. Another obvious cause for this would be kinked/blocked lines and/or malfunctioing wheel cylinders.

The car's brakes were tired but ok before turning her over to the shop (SA). Among other jobs, SA rebuilt the brakes and found the rear brakes lock up well before the front brakes engage fully. Lines have been flushed and seem fine. Front brake drums and shoes match ok, some re-arching of the shoes did not solve the problem. Front shoes are of a different mfg than the rear, is this a friction coefficient issus?? SA indicates that they are getting to the end of their expertise on the cause of the brake differential. SA is pretty good at general repairs and Chryslers are not too mysterious for them. I have done the brakes myself at least twice without screwing it up, so the pro's have hit a hitch in their getalong? Help.... Has any of you run into this problem before?? The shop (SA) is owned by a pal who has done great work on my cars before, so no funny biz going on.
